Recovers fumble in win
Tue, Oct 20, 2026, 8:36 PM
Reese logged six tackles (four solo) and a fumble recovery during the Giants' loss to the Saints on Sunday.
Analysis: Reese had another solid outing despite the loss, as he managed to recover the first fumble of his career. The 21-year-old has gotten off to a strong start in his rookie season, racking up 49 tackles (34 solo), including 1.0 sacks, an interception and a fumble recovery across his first six games.
Dominic Zvada
Dominic Zvada Makes three kicks in loss
Mon, Oct 19, 2026, 9:58 PM
Zvada made both of his field-goal attempts and his sole PAT in the Giants' 34-27 loss to the Saints on Sunday.
Analysis: Zvada had a strong Week 6 bounceback after going 2-for-5 on field-goal attempts in Week 5. The kicker made 30-yard and 41-yard field goals in the loss, so he still may struggle with distance and consistency as the season continues.
Malachi Fields
Malachi Fields Yet another two-catch performance
Mon, Oct 19, 2026, 9:00 PM
Fields caught two of eight targets for 19 yards during the Giants' 34-27 loss to the Saints on Sunday.
Analysis: Fields' eight targets were a career high for the rookie third-rounder and third-most among Giants pass catchers behind Malik Nabers (15) and Isaiah Likely (11). However, Fields had only two receptions to show for it, and he's logged two catches in each of the first six games of his NFL career. The Giants will hit the road for Week 7 against the Texans, and Fields could be working with J.J. McCarthy rather than Jameis Winston for that contest.
Devin Singletary
Devin Singletary Gets first touches since Week 2
Mon, Oct 19, 2026, 8:39 PM
Singletary logged four carries into 14 yards and hauled in his lone target for 19 yards during Sunday's 34-27 loss to the Saints on Sunday.
Analysis: Singletary was back in action Sunday after being a healthy scratch in each of the Giants' three games prior to Week 6. Three of his four carries went for two yards or fewer, although he did log a nine-yard rush and 19-yard catch on back-to-back plays early in the fourth quarter. Singletary's 31 offensive snaps were most among Giants running backs, but the team's backfield situation is a mess, given Cam Skattebo saw the field for only six offensive snaps and did not record a carry. The Giants will hit the road for Week 7 against the Texans on Oct. 25.
Isaiah Likely
Isaiah Likely Another big day in Week 6 loss
Sun, Oct 18, 2026, 8:35 PM
Likely caught six of 11 targets for 99 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-27 loss to the Saints.
Analysis: The tight end came through with another big performance and connected with J.J. McCarthy on a 24-yard TD in the fourth quarter after the young QB had replaced Jameis Winston under center. It's reassuring that Likely remained involved even after the switch at quarterback, and he's seen double-digit targets in three straight games, delivering a 24-259-3 line on 36 targets as the team's No. 2 pass catcher behind Malik Nabers. Likely will look to keep rolling in Week 7 against the Texans, regardless of who is throwing him the ball.
Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo Zero touches in Week 6 loss
Sun, Oct 18, 2026, 8:31 PM
Skattebo played only six snaps and got zero carries or targets in the Giants' 34-27 loss to the Saints on Sunday.
Analysis: One week after losing a key fumble in a 27-27 tie to the Commanders, Skattebo was removed from his starting job as the Giants' backfield devolved into a four-man committee. Tyrone Tracy was the team's most productive back, scoring one rushing and one receiving TD but managing just 45 scrimmage yards on eight touches, while Devin Singletary had 33 yards on five touches and Najee Harris eked out just two rushing yards on four carries. With no one really stepping up in his place, Skattebo could return to a more significant role in Week 7 against the Texans, but it will be hard to trust any New York RB in fantasy lineups until one of them emerges from the pack.
J.J. McCarthy
J.J. McCarthy Leads late comeback attempt in Week 6 loss
Sun, Oct 18, 2026, 8:20 PM
McCarthy replaced Jameis Winston in the fourth quarter of Sunday's 34-27 loss to the Saints, completing 11 of 21 passes for 243 yards and one touchdown with one interception.
Analysis: After Winston tossed his second pick of the game, this one in New York territory, New Orleans turned the ensuing possession into a two-play TD drive to go ahead 34-10. McCarthy stepped in and immediately threw an INT of his own on his first drive, but he settled in after that and led the Giants on three straight scoring drives as they mounted a desperate, but ultimately unsuccessful, comeback. It's not clear which QB will get the start in Week 7 against the Texans, but coach John Harbaugh may view a Week 8 bye as a better time to make a permanent switch to McCarthy.
Jameis Winston
Jameis Winston Benched in Week 6 loss
Sun, Oct 18, 2026, 8:10 PM
Winston completed 14 of 26 passes for 152 yards and one touchdown with two interceptions before being benched in favor of J.J. McCarthy during Sunday's 34-27 loss to the Saints.
Analysis: After Winston's second INT of the game in the fourth quarter, he got the hook and watched McCarthy nearly lead a comeback from a 34-10 deficit. The performance by McCarthy could well earn him his first start as a Giant in Week 7 against the Texans, or coach John Harbaugh could stick with Winston for another week until re-evaluating the situation during the team's Week 8 bye. If Winston is back under center, he'll be sporting a 7:5 TD:INT through five games
Malik Nabers
Malik Nabers Huge day despite QB turmoil
Sun, Oct 18, 2026, 7:57 PM
Nabers caught 12 of 15 targets for 165 yards in Sunday's 34-27 loss to the Saints.
Analysis: Jameis Winston got benched in favor of J.J. McCarthy in the fourth quarter after throwing his second interception of the day, but Nabers stayed busy no matter who was under center for the Giants, leading the team in catches, targets and receiving yards. The third-year wideout topped 100 yards for a third straight game, a stretch in which he's racked up a 29-398-2 line on 42 targets, but a potential full-time switch to McCarthy under center will create a little extra uncertainty for Nabers heading into a Week 7 tilt against the Texans.
Tyrone Tracy Jr.
Tyrone Tracy Jr. Two TDs on eight touches in loss
Sun, Oct 18, 2026, 7:39 PM
Tracy rushed six times for 18 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-27 loss to the Saints. He added two catches for 27 yards and an additional touchdown on three targets.
Analysis: With Cam Skattebo seemingly benched after losing a fumble in overtime against the Commanders last Sunday, Tracy played a season-high 29 offensive snaps and led the team with six rushing attempts. Only Devin Singletary (31 snaps) played more on offense, as Najee Harris (11 snaps) got the nominal start. Skattebo was in for just six offensive plays. It's unclear if the Giants will continue to punish Skattebo next Sunday against the Texans, but this looks like a backfield to avoid in fantasy.
Cleared of concussion
Sun, Oct 18, 2026, 4:50 PM
Thomas did not sustain a concussion in the Giants' 34-27 loss to the Saints on Sunday, Ryan Dunleavy of the New York Post reports.
Analysis: Thomas did not finish the game after exiting the fourth quarter with a possible concussion, however he was cleared from having a concussion after the contest.
Injured on final play
Sun, Oct 18, 2026, 4:47 PM
Edmuns (shoulder) suffered an injury on the final Saints' offensive play of Sunday's game, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: The Giants' starting inside linebacker played 100 percent of the team's defensive snaps and logged nine tackles (six solo), including 1.0 sacks, in the contest. Edmunds suffered a shoulder injury on the final play of the game, and it is unclear how significant the injury is.
Being evaluated for concussion
Sun, Oct 18, 2026, 2:54 PM
Thomas (head) is being evaluated for a potential concussion and is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Saints, Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record reports.
Analysis: Thomas exited the fourth quarter of Sunday's game with an apparent head injury. The left tackle is being evaluated by one of the NFL's independent neurologists. If Thomas is deemed to have suffered a concussion, he will be ruled out for the remainder of the game.
Darnell Mooney
Darnell Mooney Questionable with neck issue
Sun, Oct 18, 2026, 2:33 PM
Mooney (neck) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Saints, Ross Jackson of WWL Louisiana reports.
Analysis: Mooney sustained a neck injury in the second half of Sunday's game. The wide receiver will need to be thoroughly vetted for a significant injury before potentially being allowed to return to the contest. Charlie Jones will operate as the Giants' No. 3 wide receiver while Mooney is absent.
Ruled out with concussion
Sun, Oct 18, 2026, 2:26 PM
Newsome (concussion) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Saints, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Newsome exited Sunday's game with a head injury. The cornerback was diagnosed with a concussion and has now entered the NFL's five-step concussion protocol. Newsome will need to be cleared by an independent neurologist to return to full-contact football activities.
Inactive with calf injury
Sun, Oct 18, 2026, 11:50 AM
Eluemunor (calf) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Saints, Dan Salomone of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: While left tackle Andrew Thomas is set to suit up, Eluemunor was unable to overcome his calf injury in time for Sunday's contest. Marcus Mbow or J.C. Davis will start at right tackle against the Saints in Eluemunor's absence.
Ready for Sunday
Sun, Oct 18, 2026, 11:47 AM
Thomas (groin) is active for Sunday's game against the Saints, Dan Salomone of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Thomas is set to play through a groin injury as he has for most of the 2026 regular season. The left tackle will protect starting quarterback Jameis Winston as the Giants attempt to make a home stand against the Saints.
Ready for Sunday
Sun, Oct 18, 2026, 11:18 AM
Carter (calf) is active for Sunday's game against the Saints, Dan Salomone of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Carter was absent for the first two practices of Week 6 prep before upgrading to a limited participant in Friday's session. The strongside linebacker looked great in practice and has recovered in time to suit up for Sunday's game against the Saints.
Jake Haener
Jake Haener Emergency QB3 for Week 6
Sun, Oct 18, 2026, 11:15 AM
Haener is inactive for Sunday's game against the Saints but is listed as the Giants' emergency quarterback, Dan Salomone of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Haener will once again be the third quarterback option behind Jameis Winston and J.J. McCarthy. Haener will only enter the game if both Winston and McCarthy cannot return due to injury, illness or ejection.
Tyrone Tracy Jr.
Tyrone Tracy Jr. Recaptures third-down role
Sun, Oct 18, 2026, 9:19 AM
Tracy is expected to continue serving as the Giants' primary third-down back in Sunday's game against the Saints, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: After being plagued by fumbles in the preseason and then losing another in the season-opening win over Dallas, Tracy appeared to be getting phased out of the New York offense. He was limited to just four total offensive snaps over the Giants' first three games, but Tracy has since appeared to regain some trust as a change-of-pace option over the past two weeks. After logging double-digit snaps Week 4 against the Cardinals, Tracy played a season-high 17 snaps in the Week 5 tie with the Commanders while carrying three times for six yards and adding two receptions for 25 yards on three targets. With fellow backs Cam Skattebo (four fumbles, one lost) and Najee Harris (one lost fumble) having had their own ball-security issues so far this season, head coach John Harbaugh may be willing to open up more work for Tracy beginning with Sunday's game. Per Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com, Harris is expected to supplant Skattebo as the Week 6 starter, but the Giants could look to incorporate a four-man committee that also includes Tracy and Devin Singletary.
